Structural highlights
Disease
[DRD2_HUMAN] Myoclonic dystonia 11. The gene represented in this entry may be involved in disease pathogenesis. DRD2 mutations in myoclonic dystonia patients are rare, and their contribution to disease phenotype is unclear (PubMed:10716258).
Function
[NCS1_RAT] Neuronal calcium sensor, regulator of G protein-coupled receptor phosphorylation in a calcium dependent manner. Directly regulates GRK1 (RHOK), but not GRK2 to GRK5. Can substitute for calmodulin. Stimulates PI4KB kinase activity. Involved in long-term synaptic plasticity through its interaction with PICK1. May also play a role in neuron differentiation through inhibition of the activity of N-type voltage-gated calcium channel.[1] [DRD2_HUMAN] Dopamine receptor whose activity is mediated by G proteins which inhibit adenylyl cyclase (By similarity).[2] [3]
